Midgets d..riliExeter 16-1 in exhibition play The Goderich Green and Parent Midgets kept scorekeeper Mike Reynolds busy Saturday night here when they drubbed the Exeter Midgets 16-1 in exhibition hockey. The high -flying local midgets got three goals in the first period, added ._.,.-'four'rmore 'i the-s'econd and banged in ten goals in the final period,to turn the game into a rut. Mike Hodges had four goals for the Green and Parent squad and. picked up two assists. Rob John Doherty, manager of the Goderich Sailors, asked the Goderich Recreation Board at its last meeting to reconsider its policy for a gate split with- the Intermediate C hockey club. • Doherty, who is also a member of the rec board, told the board he wanted to change hats and speak as manager of the hockey club. He said the club "was not exactly happy" with the arrangement.the -recreation board had decided on and asked that the Sailors be charged the sane • fee as all other Chiba using the Goderich • ,The board demanded a 70'- 30, gate. split with the Sailors, the 70 percent going to the rec board. That policy is only in effect if the board's percentage of the,gate is greater than $100. If not the Sailors will be charged a flat rate of $100 a Week' for the five hours ice time used for home games and practice. Doherty said the Sailors were "really trying to make the team as money making as possible and were not getting treated as fair as other users of the arena". He said the Goderich Merchants were not working with a gate split policy with the board but rather were being charged a flat fee for ice time used: "There isn't another team in Goderich or ice user here that is getting that treatment and ' we (the Sailors) wonder why," he told the board. "We would like to go back to the 60 -40 split or a flat ice time fee. We don't feel we should have to do both when no other users do." Board chairman Mary Donnelly told Doherty that the main reason for the fees charged the Sailors was because the board lost $1.5001ast year by not charging the Sailors under a system that would guarantee that all ice tinie used by the club was paid for. Don- nelly added that the Merchants were not being charged under that formula because they were a new team in Goderich and ,the board did not have any idea For sound representation in Colborne 8 Goderich Twp.

She added that if the Merchants began to draw large crowds the board may have to look at a similar gate split the Sailors are working with now. Doherty said the Sailors had a "hell of a good hockey team" claiming it was the best in the six year history of the club. He said the board stood to make money off. the gate split even at 60 - 40 estimating that crowds could number six or seven hundred for Sailor home games later in the season. "We're willing to go along with any decision of the board if others are getting the same shake," said Doherty. Rec director Mike Dymond told the board the Sailors may have a valid point considering the fee structure for the Merchants. But he ex- plained to the Sailor manager that the board was a little leery working a gate split with the Merchants because they were a new team. He said if they drew larger crowds-; and the arena staff hadmore cleaning up to do after the games the board would have to consider charging more money through a gate split. Arena manager Chuck Jewell told the board that many towns with junior clubs using the arena for home games are charged hefty fees for arena use because of ice time used and because they tie up a dressing room for an entire season. He said the clubs are charged more for ice time because in many cases they operate two week camps for tryouts and then have sole use of a dressing room and those services demand greater fees. Jewell commented that as a taxpayer, , in Goderich, not as the arena manager, his feeling would be that he "wouldn't want to sub- sidize any club in this town". The board told Doherty it would \stick with the 70- 30 gate split for at least another month allowing the Sailors to get two or three home games under their bplt before reassessing the situation. Suns win first two games The Suncoast Suns opened the season with a pair of victories in the atom league last weekend by, defeating Listowel twice, 3-2 and 6-4.. In the Sunday game, two late . third period goals by Scott Garrow gave the Suns a 3-2 vic- tory and overcame a 2-0 deficit to win their league opener. Dave Jewell scored early in the third period to reduce the deficit to one goal to get the team on their way. Dave Telford and Kevin Talbot drew assists on the Garrow goals.' On Monday the two teams met again in Listowel and the Suns jumped out to a 5-0 lead and then held on to a 6-4 win. Dave Jewell had three goals for Goderich while Dave Telford had two and Scott Garrow one. Todd Gilchrist picked up three assists. The locals were a far different team in this game than the one they played Sunday. Outside of a five minute lapse in the third period they played strong two-way hockey to earn the vic- tory. The Suns next action is in Walkerton Saturday and they return home on Sunday for a game against Hanover in a 5 p.m. start. RE-ELECT X BILL CLIFFORD FOR REEVE "KEEP EXPERIENCE WORKING FOR YOU" 2 Yrs.
